Look, this is completely unrealistic because cell phones would be more or less useless under water.
Totally ruins the immersion of the comic.
It should be a shell instead
We don’t know the technology stack of sharks. They could have figured out the whole RF attenuation in water issue that plagues humans.
Yes, that’s why it’s unrealistic. LOL
That’s not a phone, that’s a picture of his late wife. He’s still processing grief.
Sharks do not eat people. Sharks do not attack people unless by mistake. You are safe from sharks.
Sharks result in at most 8 human fatalities per year. Humans kill 100,000,000+ Sharks per year.
There’s no way humans kill 100 million sharks a year. How many sharks are there?
According to the scientific journal Marine Policy Volume 40 the number could be closer to 273 Million per year or possibly lower than that estimate, but it’s definitely a lot of fucking sharks.
To put things into perspective, they’re the Apex Predators of the Oceans which are about 70% of the earth’s surface, so it makes sense if there are a lot of sharks.
EDIT: Link Fixed sorry

I know. You are absolutely right 👍
Obviously this is unrealistic and intended to be unrealistic, but it reinforces the negative and false idea that sharks like to eat humans
Won’t someone please think of the sharks??
No, seriously. Quit killing them.
Like to eat humans? Probably. Do eat humans? Definitely.
No, they like actually don’t.
The shark attacks on record have happened because for some reason or other the animal mistook the human for a prey species, or was provoked in some way. And even then, statistically speaking, shark-on-human attacks basically don’t happen.
In actuality, sharks will generally just ignore human swimmers and divers. Most of the time we neither look nor smell like food to them.
